Description
Swivel Type 1.5″ Rubber Caster Wheel
Swivel Type 1.5 Inch Rubber Caster Wheel is a compact, light-duty caster designed for small trolleys, utility carts, cabinets, display units, furniture and compatible mobile equipment requiring easy multidirectional movement.
Its compact 1.5-inch rubber wheel, smooth 360-degree swivel action and top-plate mounting bracket provide easy turning, quieter rolling and controlled movement in shops, offices, homes and other suitable indoor environments.
🔄 Easy Multidirectional Movement
The swivel bracket allows the caster to rotate through 360 degrees, helping compact carts, furniture and mobile equipment turn, manoeuvre and reposition more easily in limited indoor spaces.
🔇 Quiet Rubber Rolling
The rubber tread helps reduce rolling noise and minor vibration while providing useful grip and smoother movement on tile, vinyl, wood, epoxy and other suitable finished floors.

Indoor and light outdoor use
🧭 Smooth Steering in Small Spaces
The compact swivel design allows compatible equipment to change direction without lifting or manually repositioning the complete unit. This makes it particularly useful for small carts, cabinets and fixtures used in confined areas.
🛡️ Rubber Tread for Finished Floors
The rubber tread provides more cushioning than hard plastic or nylon wheels, helping reduce harsh floor contact, minor vibration and operating noise during normal use on suitable finished surfaces.
✨ Compact Light-Duty Design
The small 1.5-inch wheel size is suitable for equipment where a compact profile, low overall height and easy manoeuvrability are more important than heavy industrial load capacity.
⚖️ Recommended 15–20 kg Per Wheel
The recommended working-load guidance is approximately 15–20 kg per wheel, or approximately 60–80 kg when four wheels are used under suitable conditions. Actual suitability depends on mounting strength, even load distribution, floor condition, movement speed and frequency of use.
📦 Common Uses
Suitable for small utility carts, light-duty service trolleys, furniture, cabinets, display units, mobile fixtures, office equipment, household equipment and compatible DIY projects requiring plate-mounted swivel movement.
🏢 Recommended Operating Surfaces
Rubber caster wheels are generally suitable for clean and reasonably smooth indoor surfaces such as tile, vinyl, wood, epoxy-coated floors, polished concrete and finished concrete.
Light outdoor use is possible on smooth or sheltered surfaces, but rough ground, sharp debris and highly uneven flooring may increase rolling resistance and wheel wear.
🛞 Choosing the Correct Caster Type
Choose this 1.5-inch swivel version when compact equipment requires easy multidirectional movement without a parking brake.
Choose a rigid caster when stable straight-line movement is required instead of frequent turning.
Choose a swivel-and-lockable caster when easy turning and parking control are both required. Confirm the available wheel size, mounting dimensions and load requirement before changing to another model.
📐 Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Before ordering, confirm the 1.5-inch wheel diameter, mounting-plate dimensions, bolt-hole spacing, overall caster height, swivel clearance and available space on your furniture, trolley or equipment.
Actual load suitability depends on correct installation, equipment construction, floor condition, number of wheels and even load distribution. Confirm the complete application with JTC before installation.
